gcc: Fix memset warnings concerning constant zero length

This patch solves two link-time warnings that are raised by gcc 4.7.1
after performing what seems to be an astonishing amount of unrolling
and inlining as part of Link Time Optimization (it takes almost 3
hours for ARM and uses a good 4+ GByte of memory). As the linking is
about to finish, _format_string in cprintf and memsetBlob in the
PortProxy are both causing a number of warnings: "call to
'__warn_memset_zero_len' declared with attribute warning: memset used
with constant zero length parameter;". It is not clear from the code
why this would ever happen unless gcc moves the block of code. In any
case, the changes make these warning disappear.
